Here you
can read the tale told by the Bayeux Tapestry -
The story of William the Conqueror and Harold,
Earl of Wessex, the men who led the Norman and Saxon armies in 1066.
William's defeat of Harold at the Battle of Hastings ensured the
success of the Norman invasion of England...

The Victorian replica of the Tapestry is housed in its own gallery at
Reading Museum, where it can be viewed for FREE during
the Museum opening hours
